The Gala is put on each year by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and will be held at McCormick Place Lakeside Ballroom and Arie Crown Theater Dec. 10 from 5:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m.
The event will include dinner and a silent and live auction. The auctions will feature an assortment of items, including a sing-along with Grammy-award winning artists The Doobie Brothers, a ceremonial first pitch at Wrigley Field, a week in Costa Rica and more.
The Doobie Brothers will perform at the Gala as the night's headlining entertainment act.
The JDRF puts on this fund-raising event to find a cure for type 1 diabetes and its complications. This year, the Gala aims to raise $3.2 million toward research and finding a cure.
Tickets for the event are $375 and include a reserved seat for dinner and the show, complimentary drink tickets, participation in the auctions and the chance to be involved in the Fund A Cure program.
The Fund A Cure program allows guests and supporters to give directly to a specific area of research of their choosing.
